  Huddle Together. Branding, design & photography.One of the reasons I co-founded ByHuddle was to bring together Burton-on-Trent’s creative people and to build the foundations of a community. Because of this, the first project that came out of ByHuddle was our ‘Huddle Together’ creative meet-ups.
• Home & Delicious. Branding & UX design for Icelandic lifestyle blog.Home & Delicious is a place for thoughts on home, food and 'interior & living design'. Because of this the branding needed to be adaptable to involve all of these interests. I set to work developing a modular brand style and a user focused web platform.
